crinum_lily Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Ok... So I preordered the digital download of the "Whole Love" album thru the Wilco website (which is the KungFu store). This is not the only album I have preordered thru KungFu. However, *all* the tracks downloaded from the KungFu store for this particular album have a minute of silence at the end of each and every track!! I thought there was something wrong with the tracks and even burned two CDs trying to figure out the issue... Finally, I checked the time/length of each track against what Amazon has listed -- and each track from KungFu is a minute longer than it should be and contains nothing but silence at the end... WTH? For example, "Art of Almost" from the KungFu store is 8:19 (which includes that minute of silence at the end). The actual track is only 7:16 in length.The track "I Might" is 5:03 from the KungFu store (again with a whole minute or so of silence at the end). The actual track is only 3:58.Etc etc. Why is this? It's super annoying. I have to skip ahead at the end of eack and every track to get to the next one unless I want to listen to a minute of silence after each and every track. Did anyone else have this issue?? Why does KungFu suck so bad? I had an issue with my Ryan Adams preorder with them recently as well... ACK!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ditty Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I just checked my downloads. While the run times for all tracks are listed in the details as 1 minute extra, the tracks do not have this extra time included. I just downloaded these Saturday. I suggest re downloading, maybe they corrected this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
crinum_lily Posted October 10, 2011 Author Share Posted October 10, 2011 Interesting. Really? Weird. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
crinum_lily Posted October 10, 2011 Author Share Posted October 10, 2011 Didn't help. I just re-downloaded the whole album. And the tracks are all the same as before (with the minute of silence at the end). Wth? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Speed Racer Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Send Kung Fu an email about the problem They left some stuff out of my pre-order bundle but responded promptly. If they can't help, someone here will certainly PM you a copy (I'm at work right now otherwise I would). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wilco75 Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 I did buy mine at anti.com, i received the download perfectly, but had to return twice because of "one sunday morning" it skipped on the same part of the song everytime, rest of the album is flawless!(vinyl version) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joe G MSU Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Definitely contact Kung Fu- I had some T shirt issues, they responded promptly, and I even got a free "I love my Label" bag. How many of those things did they make?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
